Considering the large number of plagiarised authors FP has had in the last few weeks, i have decided NOT to post my novel here, which, i have to say, is a shame. I was looking forward to the feedback. I'm glad now though, that i kept postponing it as long as i did. HOWEVER! I DID create a Livejournal yesterday, which i plan to use as a blog on writing and fiction. You can see it at: http://ladyknight1512.livejournal.com/ Thanks.

My name is Marie and i'm from Melbourne, Australia. I'm currently completing a Diploma of Professional Writing and Editing at Victoria University.

I've been writing since i was a kid, and aspire to be an editor after school. However, my ultimate goal is to be a published author.

I have writen FanFiction, although i quit in order to focus on original projects. I have written many pieces for Harry Potter, Tamora Pierce (if anyone out there has heard of her) and Gossip Girl, the TV series. My profile for ff.net can be found at http://www.fanfiction.net/u/691977/ should you be interested in reading them. If you're a GG fan (read: Chuck/Blair fan) I highly recommend my GG fics. Even I love them, and that's saying something.

Also, for anyone who loves Harry Potter discussion, and wants to hear more talk about the novels, actors, movies, etc, i recommend www.mugglecast.com MuggleCast is a podcast about everything Harry Potter. It's very well done and very proffessional despite the hosts being so young, (their ages range from 24 - 18). They're all up to date and are hilarious, so check them out.

Also, if you're a Twilight fan, check out www.twilightsource.com It's run by some of the aforementioned Mugglecasters, and they have a podcast called 'Imprint'. Definitely visit them.

So those are the basic facts that anyone coming to this profile would have to know. If you have any other (reasonable) questions, please feel free to PM me and i'll get back to you.
